The cemetery
Loved the cemetery. When someone die instead of burning the corpses as it is usually the case in Asia, this tribe burry them, built for them a little shed, guarded by a man and a woman in wood. Near the tomb the objects the dead has liked or used a lot: a pot, a bike, a wine jar . A buffalo has to be sacrificed to feed the tribe during the ceremonies so it is a huge expense for the family. Sometimes they have to postpone the final ceremony for a while. When it is done the buffalo’s horn are nailed by the tomb. During their lives they carve themselves their casket in the trunk of a tree, decorate it and keep it ready under their house. This one is the village chief's one .
